Brockville, Ontario

A nearly 30-years career in international banking and finance saw me spending over 20 years in a wide variety of countries - India, Mexico, Panama, Singapore, Hong Kong, Chile, the United Kingdom, Pakistan and Canada. From that experience, I gained a deep appreciation for the importance of local cultures, customs and practices in everyday life.

After abandoning the high life, I settled in Eastern Ontario, Canada where I have found a ready appreciation for my life skills and experiences as I combine these with long-standing abilities in the use of various languages. My professional life is now centred around interpreting in the courts of Ontario (Spanish and Portuguese into English) and providing tuition to children and adults interested in acquiring and/or refining their skills in English, French, Spanish or Portuguese.
